[BUG] Add-PnPPageSection fails when a full-width section with non-banner webpart is on the page

[JamesDerrickHH]

Reporting an Issue or Missing Feature

When I try to use the Add-PnPPageSection cmdlet to add a webpart to a news item page, if there is a full-width section with any webpart, other than a banner, already on the page then I get an error

Expected behavior

I expect the cmdlet to add a new section to the news item page

Actual behavior

I receive the following error and the section is not added
You cannot host text controls inside a one column full width section, only an image web part or hero web part are allowed

Steps to reproduce behavior

Create a news item page with multiple sections
Make one of the sections a Full-Width section, with an image webpart
Try to run the Add-PnPPageSection cmdlet for that page

The script I have involves finding any file created in the last day
$Files = $Files | Where-Object { $_.TimeCreated -gt (Get-Date).AddDays(-1) }
Then cycling through them, working out if the page has a specific webpart in it already
If it doesn't then add a new section, and add the webpart to that section
This is the command I am trying to run
Add-PnPPageSection -Page $Page -SectionTemplate OneColumn -ZoneEmphasis 2 -Order ($Page.Sections.Count + 1)
In essence finding out how many sections the page currently has and adding a new one
But it gives me the error mentioned previously, which is confusing as I am not trying to add text controls to a full width section, but just add a new section entirely.

What is the version of the Cmdlet module you are running?

PnP.Powershell 2.12

Which operating system/environment are you running PnP PowerShell on?

• Windows

This is the same issue as #4382 and has been reported to PnP Core at pnp/pnpcore#1554 .

It might help to post a comment on PnP Core to say that it affects you too.
